This PR adds support for an environment variable $SMURF_CONFIG_DIR which will replace $OCS_CONFIG_DIR if it is specified.
The OCS_CONFIG_DIR technically needs to be the directory where the OCS default.yaml file exists, which for most lab-setups is the same as the directory where the sys_config.yml and smurf-config files live. However for deployed servers these are different. We've been getting around by always manually specifying the ocs site-config file on deployment servers, but this will no longer be possible when the smurf-server environment is managed more by site-computing.
Moving forward, we will want to point to the smurf-configuration directory using a separate environment variable, $SMURF_CONFIG_DIR, which defaults to OCS_CONFIG_DIR if it is not set.
